a) The mechanisms responsible for the acute responses to exercise in the cardiovascular, respiratory and muscular systems.
b) Characteristics and interplay of the three energy systems (ATP-CP, anaerobic glycolysis, aerobic system) for physical activity, including rate of ATP production, the capacity of each energy system and the contribution of each energy system.
c) Fuels (both chemical and food) required for resynthesis of ATP during physical activity and the utilisation of food for energy.
d) Relative contribution of the energy systems and fuels used to produce ATP in relation to the exercise intensity, duration and type.
e) Oxygen uptake at rest, during exercise and recover, including oxygen deficit, steady state and excess post-exercise oxygen consumption.
f) The multi-factorial mechanisms (including fueld depletion, metabolic by-products and thermoregulation) associated with muscular fatigue as a result of varied exercise intensities and durations.
g) Passive and active recovery method to assist in retuning the body to pre-exercise levels.
